Shorten the long landing
Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,091 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 416 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Overall, your aircraft landing score of 97.9% is truly impressive and reflects the skill and precision of your piloting abilities.
During the Approach Phase, your excellent glideslope alignment shows a strong understanding of maintaining proper altitude and descent rate, which is essential for a smooth and safe landing. This sets a solid foundation for the rest of the landing process.
Moving on to the Landing Phase, your good threshold height indicates a well-judged approach to the runway, ensuring a timely and accurate touchdown. The great landing flare suggests a smooth transition from descent to touchdown, minimizing the impact on the aircraft upon landing.
In the Touchdown Phase, while the touchdown rate was noted as hard and the speed slightly above target, the touchdown distance inside the touchdown zone showcases a controlled and accurate landing. The runway touchdown position being only 2.0 m from the centerline is a minor deviation that can easily be adjusted with practice and focus.
Finally, in the Rollout Phase, your very good runway alignment demonstrates your ability to maintain control and directionality during the landing roll, ensuring a safe and efficient exit from the runway.
Overall, your performance in each phase of the landing process is commendable, with areas for improvement identified to further enhance your skills. Keep up the excellent work and continue to strive for precision and excellence in your landings. With dedication and practice, you can achieve even higher scores and perfect your technique. Well done!
